Item Description
A large, sharp, nicely terminated, sulfur-yellow ettringite crystal from the famous Nchwaning II Mine of South Africa. The highly lustrous, partially gemmy crystal has textbook, hexagonal crystal form and the little sidecar crystal near the termination is neat. Contacted on the back, but out of sight. Very highly representative of the species and locale. Valued $750-950
